Basically, it has 4 banks of storage, with each bank capable of holding 64 additional patches for any of these synths, and can be used with several at once (for example bank A can store sounds for the Poly 800, and Bank B could hold patches for the EX 8000, etc.).

“Korg MEX8000 memory expander for various Korg synths from the mid 80s such as the Poly/EX – 800 and DW/EX 8000, and others (see photo of bottom)
Depending on the synth, this expander can allow up to 4 extra banks to be stored and accessed by the appropriate synth.
However, I used this a few months ago and it worked great.
Not sure if I left sounds on it from my EX8000/EX800 or if I erased it.
Sensible offers may be considered but this is a rare and very useful piece of equipment.
Note unit uses a NINE Volt battery, not the 6 AAs indicated.
The unit includes a CR2032 3 volt battery, freshly replaced.
Battery not necessarily included. Ask if you want me to ship with one.” Link

“Up for auction is a rare Korg MEX-8000. It’s in quite nice condition for an item from 1985 with only a few minor scuffs and scratches. The battery compartment is clean and free of corrosion (can also be powered via a 9v adaptor). Roughly in the centre of the unit there is the smallest indication of a sticker that I have taken off. This was put on when I had it tested by an professional electrical tester (why he didn’t put in on the back I’ll never know). I’ve tried my best to clean it off and it is only now visible in certain lights. Unfortunately, I no longer have any equipment to test this on (remiss of me, I know) but I believe that it is working as expected, however, if the unit proves to be faulty I will accept it back for a refund (return postage at buyer’s expense). Purchase with confidence – there will be no problem.” Link

“UP FOR AUCTION IS THIS GENTLY USED KORG MEX-8000 MEMORY EXPANDER. I DO NOT HAVE THE ORGINAL POWER CORD, I RECENTLY MOVED AND IT WAS LOST. I DID HAVE IT PLUGGED IN A FEW MONTHS AGO, AND IT DID LIGHT UP. IT TAKES AC ADAPTER DC9V.” Link

” Here is a good used MEX-8000 Korg memory expander. It powers on and appears to work fine. It is in good used condition with minor wear from use. It runs on AA batteries. It can run on a AC adapter but one is not included. ” Link
